Paying for College

How can I pay for my own tuition? Is it possible?

Hey, so I鈥檓 currently still in high school. I come from a Muslim Arab family living abroad because of my dad鈥檚 job. My parents aren鈥檛 supportive of me studying anywhere outside my home country, but I don鈥檛 want them to control where I pursue my education. They鈥檝e also been less supportive of me personally because of things they consider major sins. I鈥檓 just a teenager, and I can鈥檛 change who I am or who I love.

Anyway, putting my backstory aside鈥攎y main question is: if I manage to leave my household and cut ties with my family, is it realistically possible to pay for my own tuition while studying? I鈥檓 hoping to go to the UK.

:'(

Yes, it鈥檚 possible to pay your own tuition, but as an international student it鈥檚 very difficult unless you secure scholarships, save money first, or choose a more affordable study path before the UK.

Being very realistic, no. If you're not eligible for UK tuition I would not recommend it as most international student tuitions are above 40k/year.

For other places, it depends on what passports you have and I recommend that if you have an EU passport to go to Ireland as their tuiton for EU 鲍鱼直播 is only 8,000/year which is realistic to pay by yourself. In Spain you have the IE that costs about 26,000 euros/year in tuiton which can be possible through hard work. You have the Netherlands (Delft) which is 4,000 eur/year and KAIST in Korea for 9k/year. I would recommend looking at Europe as most of them have affordable tuiton. Wish you a lot of luck and I hope you manage to find a way to make your situation work.

I would say yes if you start saving money now, secure a scholarship (try to get more than one ), and try to get a school that has work study programs so you can work in school ( most U.S.A colleges have them ) .
